Red and Gold
by K Ralston on 12/08/22
About this design:
Maybe I deserve some new earrings just for me. These big golden rondells are a favorite from my extremely disorganized stash. Just trying to get refocused.
Components:
Gold and red rondells in various sizes. Bead caps, multiple types. Resin sparkly things (lol), head pins, 24 guage wire, ear wires.Read the comments (or add your own)

K Ralston says:I’ve learned not to try to upload too much at once, or it often fails. I’ll upload a couple more images. All is well with the tribe. I was awakened at 2am with a big dog snout in my face and a smiling and wagging Romeo staring at me. Apparently he wanted a snack, LOL. I’m not cooking at 2am, but I heated a couple of hot dogs in the microwave and they all had some slices. I hung curtains on the outside of the Oasis fence so he can’t see the street. It’s helped him quite a bit.

dolllady aka Pam says:These are pretty. I can’t wear them that long. When God was putting me together He asked what I wanted or a neck, short of long. I told Him not long but not real short. He must have misunderstood what I meant by not too short. When shoulder duster earrings was poplar I bought one pair. They hung below my collarbone.

sweetjane says:Red and gold are a great pair…especially when there are some sparkly beass. I love the ongoing saga of Romeo…it seems he has found a good home in time for Christmas.

K Ralston says:Thanks all. Beady, I think the sparkly things are meant for sewing on clothing. I bought them online and they were advertised as glass, but they are not. Thanks Sweetjane. I was just thinking I am probably getting obnoxious talking about Romeo so much, LOL. He’s come a long way in just 10 days.

Moogie says:I know what you mean about uploading. Sometimes all the descriptions & list of components don’t load, just a few pics. One thing I tried was to choose smaller files for the pictures. It seemed to help my last upload.
I love your earring creations & your dog stories:)

Beady Little Eyes says:KR – I love hearing about and seeing photos of Romeo. He’s so sweet. You can’t talk about him too much for me.

Crystal Canary says:Heating up hot dogs for the pups at 2am in the morning is surely an act of selfless love! Beautiful earrings for a beautiful gal. I think the length adds a little extra shimmer to these elegant earrings.
